A National Rail statement said: "A signalling problem near to Herne Hill means trains are unable to run from London Victoria towards Bromley South via Herne Hill. Trains towards London are not being affected by this.

"Trains between London Victoria and Bromley South will be diverted on an alternative route via Denmark Hill, and won't be able to stop at stations via Herne Hill.

"Mainline services will also be diverted via Denmark Hill, which may cause extended journey times."
